Re: Asking for prayers and advice

Hi midnight: One of my favorite hymns helps me get through tough times.

Here is the chorus.

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
Because He lives, all fear is gone
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living, just because He lives.

Re: Asking for prayers and advice

Draw strength from any sources that are meaningful to you. (Prayer, meditation, deep breathing, talking with trusted friends, whatever gives you peace and power.)

Remember that our perception of an impending event usually is more frightening that the actual event itself.

Know you've survived other challenges.

Keep in mind that we tend to learn and grow the most from facing and overcoming those things we fear.

Sending prayers and positive thoughts to you, midnight.

Dear Midnight. Always know that you are not alone. Plenty of very nice folks here wishing you the best of luck and wishing you well. Stay strong.

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

My prayers are with you and when I have to do something that is hard or difficult, I give it to the Lord and in my mind recite over and over, I can do all things through Him who gives me strength. Philippians 4:13
